The O’Henry Peach Tree is a classic variety that is renowned for flavor, and that ripens in the second half of August, extending the fresh-peach season by several weeks. The large fruits have deep-yellow flesh and a bright red skin, with only a little fuzz. This self-fertile variety doesn’t need another peach variety to carry a heavy crop, and it is freestone, making it easy to cut and slice for salads and baking. Heavy yielding and vigorous, you will soon be picking amazing fresh peaches from your own garden.
The O’Henry Peach Tree should be planted in full sun, in lighter well-drained soils. Avoid heavy clay and low-lying places.
